In Zaporizhzhia, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy took part in the Living Chain flash mob on the occasion of the Day of Unity of Ukraine. More than 1,500 people holding ribbons connected the banks of the Dnieper River through a newly built cable-stayed bridge, which symbolizes the unity of the Ukrainian state.

In Zaporizhzhia, the Head of State will take part in ceremonial events on the occasion of the Day of Unity of Ukraine.

"The proclamation of the Act Zluky is an important page in the annals of statehood, and now, more than a century later, we understand that the unity of Ukraine is not only about history, it is about our present and future," said the President.

The Head of State informed his interlocutor about the development of the security situation along Ukraine's borders. The leaders agreed on the need to continue a joint coordinated effort to prevent the conflict from escalating.

"We all live on this Earth. This is about values. There are rules that may help us survive in this world. You can’t capture someone’s territory, and you can’t invade," the President of Ukraine stressed.

The United States could help Ukraine find a format for talks with Russia on peace in Donbas. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview to The Washington Post.
